Jordan Love gets a chance to redeem himself from Week 4’s primetime loss to the Lions by taking down the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday Night Football. This large gap in between games (10 days) will give Aaron Jones and Christian Watson a great chance to show up fully healthy. Davante Adams is questionable, and Jimmy Garoppolo is expected to return from missing Week 4 with a concussion.
Let’s look at some player props, and check out our Green Bay Packers vs Las Vegas Raiders predictions on the side and total, including a 3-star best bet!
Christian Watson (GB) over 38.5 receiving yards (-115)
Line available on BetMGM at the time of publishing.
Watson returned in Week 4 to 4 targets, 2 receptions, and 25 yards in only 46% of the snaps. It’s tough to pull much from this as the game was a blowout, but now Watson has had additional time to rest coming off TNF and should be in for a higher snap count Monday night. In 15 career games, he’s averaging 14.8 yards per reception and that makes this line beatable with 3 receptions. He’s beaten this mark in 7/12 (58%) career starts and it’s a buy-low spot for Watson. Luckily, we’re getting this low mark against the Raiders defense. They’ve given this line up to 5 different receivers in 4 games. 1U

Luke Musgrave (GB) over 31.5 receiving yards (-115)
Line available on DraftKings Sportsbook at the time of publishing.
Musgrave cleared concussion protocol this week and is good to go Monday night. Previous to last week on TNF, Musgrave was averaging 11.2 yards per reception and played around 80% of the snaps. This number is essentially 3 catches for Musgrave against a Raiders defense that looked bad for 3 straight weeks against opposing tight ends, until Gerald Everett saved them. Dalton Kincaid, Adam Trautman and Pat Freiermuth all hit this number with ease against Las Vegas and I like Musgrave in a bounce-back spot. His ADOT of 10.5 is ranked 3rd overall for TEs this season and has 3 deep targets on the year, making this more attractive if he can haul in a big play. 1U
